July 15, 2025This ‘Boring’ Real Estate Asset Is Crushing It in 2025?
In this episode, Toby Mathis, Esq., of Anderson Business Advisors, sits down with Ryan Gibson from Spartan Investment Group to discuss the current housing market and the unique opportunities in self-storage investing. They explore how the housing market has changed with low transaction volumes due to homeowners holding onto low-interest-rate mortgages, creating opportunities in alternative real estate sectors.

With over 800 million dollars in assets under management and a track record of 16 successful exits, Ryan shares insights on market consolidation, value-add opportunities, and why self-storage has been the best-performing commercial real estate asset class.

Submit your tax question to [email protected]

Highlights/Topics:
"What is the best way to reduce my income and my self-employment taxes? I'm single, a handyman/contractor with no dependents. I work solo, no employees." - Form S Corporation, pay reasonable wage, save on employment taxes.

"I have an S-Corp LLC for my property management and business consulting activities. I'd like to provide my me and my spouse's healthcare through the LLC. What's the best way to go about this?" - S Corporation pays premiums, adds to W2, deducts on Schedule 1.

"Self-employed limited partner exception. Please talk about this topic." - Very risky strategy; IRS cracking down; use S-Corporation instead.

"How can one start a business, LLC or C-corp, and an ideal state of incorporation and hold those shares in a Roth IRA?" - Cannot own an operating business in Roth IRA; consider ROBS instead.

"What types of taxes and tax reporting will be involved if I begin investing in tax liens?" - Interest income or property ownership; depending on the redemption outcome.

"What are the rules for capital gains taxes on the sale of a house when the profits are used to pay cash on the next property?" - Sales price minus adjusted basis equals gain; cash use is irrelevant.

"I am taking my primary home and turning it into a rental for one to two years. How do taxes work if you wanted to 1031 a portion of the gains?" - Take Section 121 exclusion first, then 1031 the remaining gain.

"Under a 1031, taxpayers must select three possible real estate properties within 45 days. Can these selected properties be changed before the 180-day deadline?" - No changes allowed after 45 days; very strict timeline rules.

"I have a boat to donate to charity. Is it true that I can make a $5,000 donation without having a certified appraiser?" - Yes, under $5,000 needs written acknowledgment, not certified appraisal.

"What are the ways we can avoid probate?" - Living trust, joint ownership, beneficiary designations, lifetime gifting strategies

June 24, 20251031 Exchange Rules When Buying in a Different State
In this comprehensive Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle complex tax strategies focusing heavily on 1031 exchanges and business deductions. They explain why fix-and-flip properties cannot use 1031 exchanges since they're considered inventory rather than investments, and suggest using C-corps or S-corps for tax savings instead. The attorneys dive deep into 1031 exchange mechanics, covering depreciation carryover basis, cost segregation complications, and state clawback rules in California, Oregon, Montana, and Massachusetts. In other topics, they discuss the heavy SUV deduction for vehicles over 6,000 pounds, explaining how to maximize depreciation through Section 179, bonus depreciation, and MACRS while requiring material participation. Other tips include strategic use of management C-corps for rental property mileage deductions through accountable plans, qualifying for 0% capital gains rates, handling Ponzi scheme losses through IRS safe harbor provisions, tax implications of timeshare deed-in-lieu transactions, and expatriation exit taxes for high-net-worth individuals renouncing US citizenship.
Submit your tax question to [email protected]

Highlights/Topics:
"I own an LLC that I use to purchase a single-family house to fix and flip. Can I use a 1031 exchange to save on taxes while I look for my next property?" - No, fix-and-flip properties are inventory, not qualifying investments.

"I have five years left of depreciation on rental property. I was looking into a 1031 exchange but didn't realize that the depreciation schedule remains. Can I do a 1031 to defer some capital gains but no longer depreciate and/or buy another property and get new depreciation schedule for that one?" - You get carryover basis plus new excess basis depreciation.

"What are some of the rules regarding a 1031 exchange when selling a rental home in one state, but purchasing the replacement property in another state?" - Allowed, but watch for clawback rules in four states.

"If I buy a car with a weight more than 6,000 pounds for my newly incorporated business and have not earned any income in the first year of business, can I use it to reduce taxes against my spouse's W2 income?" - Yes, through S-corp with material participation and 50% business use.

"I own a rental house and a management corporation, which is a C corp. How do I deduct mileage for my rental activity?" - Use accountable plan reimbursements from C-corp for tax-free money.

"How does one qualify for 0% capital gains?" - Single filers need taxable income of $48,350 or less.

"I invested in an ATM syndication. It was a Ponzi scheme and all investment was lost. The K-1s I received for previous years were fraudulent. How do I file my taxes for those years that I received a fraudulent K-1?" - Use IRS safe harbor provision for 75-95% ordinary loss deduction.

"What are the tax implications of doing a deed in lieu for a timeshare?" - Creates cancellation of debt income taxed at ordinary rates.

"What happens to your real estate if when you move outside of the country, is it deemed disposition?" - Only if expatriating citizenship, then exit tax applies.

"Would establishing an LLC help me reduce tax on income from stock trading?" – Consider corporate trading partner structure for meaningful capital gains.

"We were advised to transfer real estate to our children up to a certain limit using the parent-child transfer provision form 709. Can you please discuss the advantages and disadvantages? Any limitations on the amount of equity transfer and any IRS requirements, etc.?" - Not recommended, complex bookkeeping, lose stepped-up basis.
"I want to join a syndication as a limited partner. What tax implications do I face at the time of distribution of profits and how does it change if they do a cost segregation and bonus depreciation while I'm still part of this syndication? An additional fact is that this person has their own long-term rental." - Passive income, and cost segregation create offsetting losses.
"Are you entitled to cost segregation benefits if you invest in a syndication with your IRA/401k funds?" - Yes allocated, but no tax benefit in retirement.
"Please explain the C Corporation Master Lease strategy for short-term rental owners. I own a short-term rental but was unable to capitalize on the short-term rental loophole because I had used professional property management. Does this strategy provide any advantage to somebody in my situation or allow me to take advantage of the loophole in a different way? How would the tax breakdown work in this case if I created a management C corporation?" - C corp manages property, shifts income, enables reimbursements.
"What is the downside of using a 1031 exchange to avoid taxes in a profit transaction? Are there any benefits?" - Strict deadlines, higher debt required, but defers taxes.

Is this also reimbursable?" - Doctor's note rule applies, antioxidants questionable, grippers no.

May 13, 2025Can You Boost Depreciation After a 1031 Exchange?
In this episode of Tax Tuesday, Eliot Thomas, Esq. is joined by Anderson CPA Barley Bowler. They explain how transfer-on-death titles still provide beneficiaries with stepped-up basis advantages and clarify that short-term rentals don't qualify for real estate professional status. You’ll hear proper entity structures for rental properties, recommending against holding appreciating real estate in C corporations. They thoroughly explain the 280A "Augusta Rule" that allows tax-free rental income from personal residences to your business for up to 14 days annually. With input from bookkeeping expert Troy Butler, they recommend QuickBooks Online for tracking rental property finances. Additionally, they cover Roth IRA conversions, tax withholding strategies, and 1031 exchange rules for deferring capital gains.

Submit your tax question to [email protected]
Highlights/Topics:
"When a house is under a transfer on death title, does the beneficiary still get a step-up in basis?" - Yes, they still get a stepped-up basis.
"If I already qualify as a real estate professional rep status via short-term rentals and add long-term rentals to the mix. Can I lump the two kinds together? And does having an S corporation that manages everything affect my rep status?" - Short-term rentals don't qualify for REP status. S-corps generally don't affect REP status.
"Where real estate properties are in individual LLCs, disregarded and owned by my C corporation, does the C corporation maintain one bank account and collect rent for all individual properties?" - Not recommended. Use a management company instead.
"If you get started in wholesaling, should you file as an S corporation?" - Yes, use S or C corp.
"What kind of bookkeeping is needed for rental real estate? Do you have any bookkeeping software to suggest?" - QuickBooks Online is recommended. Track properties separately.
"When doing an IRA to Roth conversion, are there any limits? Are pre-tax conversions always treated as ordinary income? Is it true that the IRS does not know or care when the conversions were done during the year?" - No limits. Yes, ordinary income. IRS treats as earned throughout year.
"How does tax work if a business owner is paying himself as an employee, do we have to tax twice? Once for the business income and once as an employee?" - No, payroll is deductible business expense.
"How do I do a 1031 exchange? And how do I maximize real estate property depreciation after I do a 1031 exchange? Am I stuck with the previous depreciation rate and amount of the previous property?" - Use a qualified intermediary. Trade up for more depreciation.

Kathy also discusses the current opportunity with builders offering rate buy-downs on new construction, property management considerations, and the importance of avoiding markets with unfavorable landlord laws. This episode provides valuable insights for both new and experienced real estate investors looking to build wealth through strategic property acquisition.

April 29, 2025How to Sell Stocks Tax-Efficiently to Buy Rental Property
In this episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., address several listener questions on a variety of tax topics. They cover the tax implications of selling stocks to purchase rental properties, explaining capital gains strategies and depreciation options. The duo discusses using LLCs and management corporations for rental properties, including how property management fees can generate tax-free income. They explore inheritance tax considerations for 401(k)s, the benefits of short-term rentals for generating tax losses, and the implications of moving back into a rental property. Other topics include setting reasonable salaries for S-Corporation owners, maximizing depreciation to offset W2 income, claiming natural disaster losses, depreciating remodel costs for rental properties, and properly implementing the 280A/Augusta Rule for tax-free home rentals.

Submit your tax question to [email protected]

Highlights/Topics:
"I would like to sell my stocks and use the money to help purchase a rental property. Is there a strategy to minimize or avoid paying taxes on capital gains or any other tax-saving advice?" - Loss harvesting and short-term rental tax benefits.

"Would a rental property not in an LLC also be reported under the Management Corporation or a 1040?" - Report rental on 1040, management fee on 1120.

"What would the tax implication be when a spouse passes and the surviving spouse inherits a 401k?" - Lump sum, continue distributions, or rollover options.

"What would be the tax consequences concerning W2 income, depreciation, etc., of purchasing a rental property, using it as a short-term rental with material participation in the tax year that it was purchased, then selling it the following tax year?" - First-year losses, later depreciation recapture on sale.

"What are the tax implications if I've moved back into my rental and use it as my primary residence? I'm not planning on selling anytime soon." - Reduced Section 121 exclusion, depreciation recapture later.

"What is a reasonable salary range we should set for ourselves to remain compliant but still maximize our S Corporation Tax savings?" - 30-60% of net business income typically.

"If a person is a W2 wage earner and wants to start real estate as a side job, what needs to be true when picking real estate options to maximize asset depreciation to help offset my W2 taxes owed?" - Short-term rentals with material participation (100+ hours).

"If I experienced a loss from a flood that was declared a natural disaster in 2024, how do I take that credit on my taxes?" - Personal: federal declaration required. Business: none needed.

"How do you depreciate remodel costs for an income property? So, a rental property. You purchased the property, for example, 10 years ago for 100k, and began depreciating it.
